Background: COVID-19 has caused enormous disruptions to the Australian and global economies. Many companies are operating under significantly different circumstances to those existing two years ago. In particular, the airline industry has been severely impacted. With international borders closed, and state borders unpredictably opening and closing for much of the COVID-19 pandemic, Qantas Limited (Qantas) recognised large impairment expenses in 2020 and 2021. Qantas reported an impairment expense in 2021 of $270 million and in 2020 of $1,456 million. For the reporting period ended 30 June 2021, Qantas reported an underlying loss before tax of $1.823 billion and a statutory loss before tax of $2.35 billion. (A copy of the Qantas annual report can be found under Assessment task 1 on the CloudDeakin site.) With the re-opening of international borders in November 2021 the airline industry has started to rebuild. Airlines are spending considerable amounts to retrain and re-certify pilots who have not flown for more than 90 days, and to service "mothballed" aircraft to make them ready and safe for flights.
